Best Romance, The NABE Pinnacle Book Achievement Award (Summer 2014) An inspiration of Barry Manilow's 70s hit song MANDY and in commemoration of its 40th anniversary, Judith Kohnen presents her fictional account of the story behind the song... Renowned singer/musician Garry Danzlo has decided to live a life of seclusion after a debilitating accident destroys his musical career. Guilt-ridden and stubborn, he wants no part of the holistic nurse his sister has hired to rehabilitate him. He's determined to get rid of her; she's determined to stay. Spunky, fun-loving Amanda Fields, widowed after a loveless marriage, is on a mission for love. More than anything in the world, she wants to adopt an eight-year-old, wheelchair-bound boy named Robbie. When her chance arrives that will provide her with sufficient funds for the adoption, there's nothing to stop her from accomplishing the temporary job in Colorado. But what she has to contend with is far more than just a difficult patient. Unexpected obstacles are suddenly out of her control. The least of her worries is falling for yet another man who doesn't love her back. "One Chance, One Moment" is a humorous, surprising and deeply emotional story of love found by two special people - love built on chances one must sometimes take, but sometimes give as well. Each moment becomes nourished by the faith of one woman, and eventually, by the dream of one man. Intriguing, fun, hope-filled, and bubbling with love, adventure and suspense, the novel explores: * How our choices can be guided by intuition * How love goes far deeper than skin * The various facets of the heart and how we observe them in life * The importance of forgiveness to find true peace within * How spirituality and intuitive development can shape our relationships * How we are sometimes faced with "one chance, one moment" opportunities in life. NOTE: When purchasing One Chance, One Moment, 20% of proceeds will be donated to charity - THE MANILOW MUSIC PROJECT - a program that tends to the needs of public schools and their severely depleted music programs.

City Under the Stars completes a journey undertaken by Gardner Dozois and Michael Swanwick 25 years ago, when they published the novella The City of God. Over two decades later, the two realized there was more to the story, and began the work of expanding it. Now, after Gardner Dozois' tragic passing, the story can be told in full. God was in his Heaven—which was fifteen miles away, due east. Far in Earth's future, in a post-utopian hell-hole, Hanson works ten solid back-breaking hours a day, shoveling endless mountains of coal, within sight of the iridescent wall that separates what’s left of humanity from their gods. One day, after a tragedy of his own making, Hanson leaves the city, not knowing what he will do, or how he will survive in the wilderness without work. He finds himself drawn to the wall, to the elusive promise of God. And when the impossible happens, he steps through, into the city beyond. The impossible was only the beginning.

They tried to make me their slave. But I’m going to turn myself into their queen. Blackmoor has tried to take everything from me. My home. My family. My dignity. Even my life. But instead, I’ve found myself. I’ve found love, even if it’s not what the storybooks say it should be. I’ve found purpose, even if it’s revenge. I’ve found three men who might not die for me, but they’ll sure as hell kill for me. I was given to them as a pet. A trophy. A slave. A meaningless prize to bolster their claim to a town steeped in blood, sacrifice, and murder. I became their goddess instead. Dean, Cayde, and Jaxon? They go on their knees for me now. I might belong to them, but they’re mine too. My cruel, savage, merciless boys. Samhain is just around the corner, and the ritual is about to begin. But it won’t be me on the altar this time. And when it’s all over? It won’t be my blood that spills. My name is Athena Saint. And I’m about to show you all just how wicked I can be.
